Re: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure by Araki Hirohiko

Actually, there was an anime adaptation of Part 3 before. And a movie of Part 1, if I'm not mistaken. And one of those, or both have been really bad that Araki refused to accept adaptations until this year together with celebrating JoJo's 25th Anniversary.

Re: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure by Araki Hirohiko

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga creator Hirohiko Araki met American actor and director Clint Eastwood earlier this year as part of the celebration for the manga's 25th anniversary. Araki used Eastwood as a model for the character Jotaro Kujo, protagonist of the story's Part 3.

Araki presented Eastwood with a framed copy of an original Jotaro Kujo illustration, and Eastwood returned the favor by posing as Jotaro. The illustration and pictures of the pair's meeting appear in the JOJOmenon mook (magazine-style illustrated volume), which shipped in Japan on October 5.

If I could choose the second place, I will choose Battle Tendency.

Re: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure by Araki Hirohiko

I think I agree with you. Diamond Is Unbreakable is just an all-around great story with great characters (particularly Yoshikage Kira). After that, I'd say Vento Aureo, mostly because of all the great battles. Jojolion is still pretty new, but it's been pretty interesting, if not weird and it could end up being another one of my favourites.

Re: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure by Araki Hirohiko

Ehh, for me I would say I enjoyed SBR the most, especially the first quarter or so. If we talk about the shounen Jojo, well I've only read until Part 3 and now more than halfway through Diamond, and I'll say I'm a bit torn with Battle Tendency and Diamond is Unbreakable. To be fair, I'll stick with SBR for now and wait 'til I finish DIU.
